1994 Fiat Tipo ie review from UK and Ireland
"Disappointing"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Failure of engine speed sensor at an early stage causing intermittent stopping when engine warm.
Failure of electric window winding mechanism.
Car would not start shortly after delivery, no adequate explanation from the dealer as to the cause. At time of this survey the car has failed again, suspect fuel delivery problem, car immobilised pending, suggestions appreciated. No jokes please.
General comments?
Good body but reliability due to Fiat's notorious electrics is a major problem.
